Funds for the Epilepsy Warriors Foundation are going towards an Epilepsy Resource Center to be located at the University of Chicago Comer Children’s Hospital and to the Health Learning Center at Northwestern Memorial Hospital to have more resources for Epilepsy families and patients. Funds will go to Changing the Face of Beauty, so they can continue their marketing campaign across Illinois to let others see that these children are special because of who they are and not the disability to show the world the beauty of our children through their eyes.
